I've waited 18 months for this thread. Reigning Sound are great - churning rockers like "Straight Shooter" and "Your Love is a Fine Thing." Slow burns like "Funny Thing" and "I'm So Thankful." Heartbreaking ballads like "Since When" and "You're Not as Pretty." Cartwright and Co. really runs the gamut brilliantly. Hell, even the covers are amazing - "Waiting for the Day" is perhaps the finest Beach Boys cover ever released.

If you haven't heard it, try tracking down their "Thacker Mtn Radio" performance - it's lovely.

Awesome... I appreciate it.

Yeah, thanks! I'm only about halfway through, but I like!!

Great band. I haven't dug too deeply though... just Time Bomb and Too Much Guitar. Does anybody remember that link that somebody posted a few months ago to Greg Cartwright's guest appearance on a radio show? He played some incredible obscure singles.

Yes. Man is that some incredible listening. I took out all the talking bits and burned all the songs to 2 CD's, and they haven't left my car since. Lots and lots of awesome, awesome stuff.

I posted that stuff.

I recently came across a radio show that he hosted on a Milwaukee radio station. It's 60 songs from his personal 45 collection: Part I, Part II

Definitely worth the download for anybody that missed it the first time.

those Greg Cartwright radio shows are definitely must-listens. so many great gems. i find myself listening to one of the shows every few weeks just because they're so very good. thanks to those shows, i now realize that Bob Seger hasn't always sucked and that some band called Reruns created one of the finest pop songs I've ever heard but sadly created little else.

Incredible listening with staying power.

This is wild, each song is individually tagged. Did you go through them all and do that yourself?

[Simakos]

yes, those radio shows are pretty much the best thing i have downloaded all year. everybody that hears them wants a copy. so i've resisted Reigning Sound for too long i guess... that TOO MUCH GUITAR link is totally not working for me... any help?

Yeah, tagged em all... I just like doing things like that, and it would really bother me if they were just a mess of songs. There were some screwed up file names, too. They were originally titled by how they were introduced by the hosts, which was obviously not accurate with the actual songs. Some were left out entirely. A couple of the songs I wasn't able to find titles or artists for, so if anybody can figure those ones out, lemme know!!

[Hewletts Daughter]

Fiat Records, I was unaware you did all the tagging for these things. You did a bang up job. And I'm listening to one of these radio shows now and yeah, still great stuff. I wish I had a talent for finding awesome obscure stuff like Cartwright. Man, these songs are so good. There's really not a dud on these things which is pretty amazing. I find myself listening to the first of the three radio shows more times than not. But seriously, so many great songs on here.

I'm ever so psyched to get home and download that stuff. Thanks a ton Fiat.

And Simakos, not sure what's wrong with the link, but I'll re-up that too much guitar link again later tonight if nobody else does it first.

Oh I know. "So Alone" is arguably my favorite song from the show, and it's about all they ever put out. I remember allmusic-ing them and thinking "what the hell do you mean there's no entry for them??"

[Simakos]

aw, man... that upload ain't mp3? screw that shit. fuck itunes.

I dunno. I have it divided in to three parts. I think I might have labeled it all wrong, though. I dunno. There's a lot of songs.

Yeah, I found that site when I wanted to find out more about them. Sad, really.

Guy at work introduced this band to me about 9 months ago. so glad he did.
